How about 3 years and cutting his balls off for a sentence? Which is worse, a Vietnamese, Turkish, or Mexican prison? Inquiring mind wants to know.

Rome, you should ask John McCain about vietnamese prisons. He’d know.

For the record, at least it wasn’t a 3 year sentence for little boys. That couldn’t be fun.

I e-mailed McCain. He told me he could not answer due to the fact that he had only been in the Vietnamese prison. He did let me know that he was going to deduct a few points off my free speech license, and I am now required to have no less that 4 illegal aliens living in my house at any given time.

Rome,

I wouldn’t mock a guy who spent go shot with a missle while standing still on the deck of an aircraft carrier, and THEN got shot down and spent 6-7 years in a vietnamese prison.

Wooderson,

Nothing is sacred at EDSBS. Nothing.

As a Vietnam Vet, I will give him all the respect he deserves. As a politician, the man is a clown. Enough said.

Little known fact: the guy we jacked our pseudonym from was also a longterm guest of the North Vietnamese government.

Who was Orson Swindle and why did you choose that for a pen name? Just curious…

He was Ross Perot’s communications director in 1992. A communications director, for a political campaign, with the last name of Swindle. We used it as a byline from that moment on.
